On life's bumpy road

Thanks Jayne, Laurie (supportive 'squeees' are the best!  ). You're right, I went ahead & did reschedule. So excited!!

... SQEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!   My court date for my name change is next Monday!!!

The unfortunate part? I've got electrolysis that morning. OK, 2 hours of pain (10:15), should give me enough time to get back home & clean up before the court date (2:30), with a 90 minute drive in between.... it might be close. I may have to shorten my torture session to 90 minutes, just to be safe. Or, just reschedule for the next week, which may be better because I have plans this Sunday, too. Plus I don't want my face to look all puffed up & red at court. Hmm....

Go for broke! Tell the judge, "Do you think I'd do this to my face as a lark? I'm serious here!"

j/k you did the right thing rescheduling. I don't know what Jayne and Laurie were doing trying that reverse psychology on you. Thankfully you didn't fall for it.

It might come out a little mumbly through the puffed up face though....

You're right, I won't not refrain from never falling for their false anti-tricks.

Just realized that our local driver's license office is only open on Thursdays and Fridays, so even if I get my court orders for name & gender change on Monday, I still have to wait until Thursday to get that done?!! I don't actually have to get it at this office though, I could drive to the next town over. Patience or not to patience...

Meeting up with some friends tomorrow to see the new Mazinger Z: Infinity movie!!! Can't wait... I've been dying to see it since the first teaser, and was astounded that it was getting a US showing.
For those not in the know, Mazinger Z (Tranzor Z in the US in the 70s) is a 1972 giant robot anime series, and was actually the very first of what would come to be called 'Super Robots' (later Mobile Suit Gundam would start what would be known as 'Real Robots'). While there were other giant robots before (Tetsujin 28 / Gigantor + others), Mazinger was the first to be directly piloted, instead of remote controlled or voice commanded.

So there's your robot anime history lesson of the day.

Sounds fun, there's never any random showings of anything around here!

Gigantor the space age robot...

As I said in the happy thread just now, I am now legally Sarah Dawn P.....!!! I'm not sure about the gender marker just yet, since apparently judges in Kansas can't issue orders for that. There's a good chance the lady at the DL office will do it anyway, but I should be able to request the change through Topeka.
Can't change the name at my banks until I get the DL, which I can't get until the office opens on Thursdays (only open Thursday & Fridays). I didn't have time to do it today, but I'll run on over to the SS office in the next town over in the next few days and get that changed.
So many places I need to get it changed... but I'm so insanely happy I don't mind the work! I almost broke out in tears when the Judge approved it and called me by my new name. I managed to hold it in until I got out to my car, then the dam broke. Amazingly, my makeup didn't run! 

Oh, and I'm celebrating with cheesecake!

I think you're in violation of the TOS on this site by posting that picture without providing some to all the girls!

Is that chocolate chip cheesecake with a chocolate and caramel drizzle I see.

... Oh, and congratulations!!

[Sarah_P]

  I'd gladly share it with everyone here! That way I wouldn't try to eat it all myself. No one at home will save me from myself, so I think I'll take it to work tomorrow to share with the other ladies.

The other ladies! Do you see the immensity of what you did there?

How awesome when we finally completely accept ourselves! You've made it, girl.

I'm so happy for you, Sarah Dawn!

So much Squeeee!!!!     I seriously considered trying to eat the whole thing myself, then decided that maybe it wasn't such a great idea. Maybe.
Thanks Laurie!!!

Someone at work today asked me my name, and of course I said Sarah. A moment later I had to hold back some tears, because I realized that it's true now in every sense.
